hi everybody,
i have a problem with setting multiple IPs in the same network in FreeBSD:
- suppose I assign two new IP addresses in the same network to eth0 with ifconfig:
#ifconfig eth0 add 192.168.10.1/24
#ifconfig eth0 add 192.168.10.2/24
- everything works fine and the output of "netstat -r" is like what it should be:
#netstat -r
....
192.168.10.0 eth0
192.168.10.1 lo0
192.168.10.2 lo0
...
- but now if I delete first IP address, connection to 192.168.10.0 network will be gone. and in output of "netstat -r" the route to 192.168.10.0 (via eth0) is gone:
#ifconfig eth0 delete 192.168.10.1
#netstat -r
....
192.168.10.2 lo0
.....
- am i missing something here? shouldn't the route to the network remain in routing table (because we still have 192.168.10.2 assigned to interface)?
Thanks.
